Fresh from their Champions League win, Aston Villa travel to high-flying Nottingham Forest for Saturday evening’s televised Premier League clash.

PP ambassador Joe Cole joined us earlier this week to give his thoughts on what’s going to go down at the City Ground for what should be a tantalising clash.

Let’s get his Nottingham Forest v Aston Villa betting tips.

There’s absolutely nothing between the odds here for either team to win. Paddy’s gone mad, but, in fairness, it is that type of game.

Aston Villa have come up a bit slightly of late, and Nottingham Forest have been sensational under Nuno Espírito Santo. It’s a hard game to pick a winner in.

I’m going to go a bit controversial here and go with Under 2.5 goals.

Villa have to consolidate, and Forest tend to play on the counterattack, and The City Ground is a very tight ground.

I can’t split them, just like Paddy, I don’t think there’ll be many goals in the game, so I’ll back the Draw, as well as Under 2.5 goals.
